This is why our relationship works.
This is why I’m so grateful to have a partner that understands business and values the commitment it takes to be an Entrepreneur.
I took this photo on a Sunday afternoon.
We spent the day shopping at one of our favorite stores and then getting an amazing lunch. The conversations that day were amazing, it was overall, a great day.
On the way home, we had to stop by one of Tony’s accounts to do a repair. So I was just walking around in the parking lot, admiring my cool new tennies, twirling my sundress around, and enjoying the sun while he did what he needed to do to take care of his client.
We were talking about how different people live and think differently, comparing philosophies when it hit me… THIS. This is why our relationship works so well.
When I knew we had to stop to do a repair on our way home, I never thought twice about it. I wasn’t annoyed or worried about it. I wasn’t trying to rush him or see if he could do it another time. I literally didn’t even think about it at all.
It’s just something that I know so deeply in my existence that is sometimes needed for him to uphold the level of attention and care he provides his accounts. It’s gestures like this that allow him to have such large, high paying accounts in the first place. They trust him to always take care of them.
They need a truck on the road Monday morning? He makes sure it happens.
Now it’s not constant, or something we have to do all of the time but I was reminded in that moment that this is something that is so rooted in our relationship that it’s actually one of the most supportive pieces.
The fact that I get it.
And vice versa. There have been plenty of times that I’ve had to take a call or get into my laptop and fix something at that very moment because well… When you own a business, sometimes that’s just part of the deal.
And he gets it.
I think this understanding is a level of support that not everyone could give. The knowing, the full blown- “I know you need to do this right now because you’re a man of your word and you take care of people” part.
Also- the fact that we keep it in check. It’s never out of line. It’s never constant. The boundary exists in a way that allows the flex when it’s needed but more than supports the un-interrupted time too.
A beautiful balance Tony and I have had mastered for years, one that I don’t think I’ve ever put the value on that it deserves before.
You may see “ugh-he’s working on a Sunday? And you have to wait?” but I see commitment. I see integrity. And I see passion.
It’s all about perspective my friends 
I personally choose the higher, sexier vibration myself but you do you.
